Survivor

I've been scared
and I've been downI've been up high
and I've been around
I've been there
and I've done that
I've seen so much
I've fought back
and I've done drugs
from the bad to the good
I've known men from the bad
to the too sweet fool
I'm a survivor
of so many things
I keep track 
with my mind and my rings
each one tells a story
sometimes boring, often been ignored
now I celebrate my own glory
because I am a survivor
